Mata Ortiz Pottery

Mata Ortiz, a small village barely three streets wide, is home to Juan Quezada, the self-taught originator of “ Mata Ortiz “ pottery, and his predominantly young followers. Your piece of the extraordinary art of the Potters of Mata Ortiz is but one example of the many diverging forms of this contemporary art movement rooted in a thousand year tradition but at the same time free and spontaneous.
